Description
Welcome to Episode 135 of The Madhappy Podcast. This week, we are running one of our favorite episodes from the archive. We are excited to welcome Erick The Architect onto the show to learn more about his mental health journey growing up in Flatbush and navigating the music industry.
We kick things off as Mason asks Erick to elaborate on his childhood experience growing up in Brooklyn, NY (4:04), leading the two into a discussion about Erick’s path to pursuing music after college (8:43).
Erick speaks to the mental health realities he faced at the age of 14 when his mom got sick (16:15), and how going on tour in his twenties forced him to think about his mental wellbeing (21:42).
Mason asks Erick to share more about how the Flatbush Zombies came to be (26:45), before the two wrap up with a conversation about Erick’s hopes for his independent career in the coming months and years (54:32).
We talk about some serious topics on this show. We are not professionals and are not giving advice. If you or someone you know needs help, please text start to 741741 and for additional resources please visit LocalOptimist.com/Get-Help
